White Chocolate Easter Egg Cupcakes

Ingredients
  • For the cupcakes:
  • 1 2/3 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 3/4 cup buttermilk
  • 1/4 cup sour cream
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla
  • 2 egg whites
  • For the frosting:
  • 2/3 cup white chocolate chips
  • 5 ounces cream cheese, room temperature
  • 3 tablespoons butter (unsalted), room temperature
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 3/4 cup powdered sugar
  • 1-2 tablespoons milk
  • For the topping:
  • Block of Chocolate (I used Baker's semi-sweet chocolate)
  • Cadbury Mini Eggs (about 36, 3 for each cupcake. You may need more for snacking.)
Instructions
  1. For the cupcakes:
  2. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
  3. In a medium sized mixing bowl combine flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  4. In another bowl melt butter and whisk in the sugar, buttermilk, sour cream, and vanilla. Add the liquid ingredients to the dry and mix until just combined. Set aside. (If you do not have buttermilk, don't worry! Add a tablespoon or two of lemon juice or vinegar to milk and it makes buttermilk.)
  5. With an electric mixer beat the egg whites until soft peaks form and then fold into the batter until combined.
  6. Spoon your batter into lined cupcake tins. I like to use a soup ladle to spoon in my batter, but you can use an ice cream scoop or a spoon.
  7. Bake cupcakes for 15-18 minutes. You can check to see if your cupcakes are done by inserting a toothpick into the middle of the cupcake. If it comes out clean, then they are done!
  8. Remove the cupcakes from the cupcake tins (when safe to do so) and cool completely on a wire cooling rack.
  9. For the frosting:
  10. Melt the chocolate in the microwave on low in 20 second intervals, stirring after each. Let the chocolate cool down for about 15 minutes.
  11. In a mixing bowl, beat butter and cream cheese on medium speed for 1 minute.
  12. Add the melted chocolate and vanilla and beat anther minute.
  13. Beat in the powdered sugar a little at a time, mixing until light and fluffy.
  14. Add the milk 1 tablespoon at a time if needed to reach desired consistency.
  15. Place the frosting in a piping bag with your desired tip and pipe onto the cupcakes.
  16. For the topping:
  17. Using a vegetable peeler, shave the chocolate to create long chocolate shavings (be careful the chocolate will melt in your hands and you are creating the shavings). Sprinkle over the freshly piped frosting and then top with Cadbury Mini Eggs.
